Our class topic this term was The Class Election. Within this topic children worked in small groups and used various tools to build mini polling booths. They also were set a challenge for homework to make a ballot box.

We have learned how to be friendly with each other. We have met characters like Fitzroy First and Blurt Out Belinda who were not very nice people but we also met Friendly Freddie who always did the right thing.

We do lots of super work in the Rainbow Room. We have been working really hard on our literacy. Sometimes we use the magnetic boards or the whiteboards. Other times we use the computer or the ipads to do spelling tasks or sentences and we use the Treasure Chest or the Alphabet Mat too. We like to play beat the clock with the phonics boxes and challenge our partners with phoneme stories. We work with buddies to improve our reading.

During Science lessons, the children have investigated what happens when you mix oil and water together. The children then predicted what would happen when washing up liquid was added. The water and oil would mix together!

The class have also tried to make dancing raisins! By pouring raisins into fizzy water, the raisins will move about when they are pushed by the bubbles. The children have really enjoyed finding out what water can do. More experiments to follow!
